“On March 12th, U.S. News & World Report released its list of the five hottest jobs for new MBA grads. While the expected titles of “consultant” and “financial manager” made their appearance, a surprising entrant topped the list: product manager. With the exponential growth of the technology sector and the SaaS business model, more and more organizations are seeking to fill this key role.”
“No title in technology is more coveted than that of product manager. A “perfect storm” of factors has contributed to the career’s newfound popularity. One, of course, is the perceived influence PMs wield within an organization. This is in part fueled by the popular (but potentially erroneous) belief that PMs are the “CEOs” of their product, which has made the role appear particularly attractive for impact-driven MBAs.”
